I'd suggest: G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 16GB https://www.amazon.com/G-Skill-Ripjaws-288-Pin-Desktop-F4-2400C15D-16GVR/dp/B013J7T5K6

Those are acceptable numbers and I'm pretty sure it is a mere coincidence.

As you said, RTX 2060 OC is equal to or a little better than the 1080. Given the price point and the additional RayTracing ability which will be utilized by many games in days to come, I say it is really good (at 1080p that is). Definitely go for the 2060 if your use case doesn't exceed 1080p...

Good for you.

What is the use case for your build? Gaming, video editing, streaming, or something else? The overwhelming 12C/24T in the AMD's 1920X is kind of an overkill for gaming since very few games require or can utilize that many cores. On the other hand, they're a blessing if you're into video editing...

Simple answer: No You have a 7th gen processor which can be known by looking at the first digit after the brand name/identifier. In your case: i5 is the brand identifier while '7' indicates its generation. Maximus X Hero only supports the newer 8th gen processors while XI Hero supports 8th and...

For $200, it's a crazy great deal I'd say. 60+ fps in high settings at 1080p is attainable from the setup. However, the only little issue I find is VRAM capacity. Though 3GB of VRAM maynot necessarily cause any issue, more could always have been better. All in all, you should definitely...

While video editing softwares greatly benefit from higher number of cores, very few games do the same. First, you gotta determine what your main focus would be. If it's gaming, I'd definitely lean towards Intel's i9-9900K (8 cores) given the price over performance ratio. Also, the integrated...

What resolution are you expecting to get 144fps on? What storage technology do you use? Your question is very vague to be answered. You should at least mention the full specification of your setup for others to help you. Take this as an example...

I'd say the 6 cores in i5-8600 compared to 2 cores in the i3-6100 definitely makes it worth the upgrade. Also, the H370 will do you just fine for the upgrade. https://ark.intel.com/products/133284/Intel-H370-Chipset

Every BSOD has a specific Error Code. Try searching it for further assistance. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/14238/windows-10-troubleshoot-blue-screen-errors This should be quite helpful. Cheers!

Since the one you own and the other you're planning to buy have almost identical specifications, mixing up different brands of memory shouldn't necessarily cause any issue. However, do proceed with further research. Cheers!

The price to performance ratio on the RTX 2060 is better than that of the RTX 2070. If you only play at 1080p, the 2060 should do you fine. Cheers!
